Lutheran Campus Mission Association

Mission Plan

We are here to serve campus ministry leaders and volunteers; students, faculty, and staff in campus communities; Lutheran congregations and districts; our national church body and the wider Christian church. Here is our plan to work for them and alongside them in mission. We will:

identify venues to establish, grow, or revitalize campus ministry programs; and we will help congregations, LCMS districts, and groups to plan and launch those ministry initiatives;
work in closer partnership with Lutheran Student Fellowship to engage and mobilize students in discipleship, service, and outreach in their campus communities and beyond;
work with International Student Ministry, Inc. to enhance LCMS Campus Ministry’s capacity to serve and engage international students and to connect them with active ministries in their campus communities;
recruit pastors, campus ministry leaders, and youth ministry leaders to help us create a living, growing, praying interactive community within which people can connect with campus ministries and share their ideas, passion, and dreams about ministry for students and young adults;
continue to provide training/networking events as well as to equip students and others in the campus community to reach out to people in the community who do not know Jesus;
work with new and existing partners to increase student, faculty, and staff access to a variety of domestic and international experiences serving people who are in physical or spiritual need;
work with Lutheran partners to encourage students entering selected professions (e.g., education, health care, social work, international sustainable development) to serve as lay ministers in these vocations;
engage "champions" who have a passion for campus ministry and will work beside us to build our capacity to accomplish the components of our mission plan.
